The Burger Federation

Convenient Burger Joint at the Airport!! This is now my goto when I fly out of Terminal 1 at the F gates. There is not much selection at this part of the airport so this one of the only places you can eat unless you want to head back the the main part of the US gates. I fly to O'Hare 5-6 tomes a year for work and usually fly out early morning during the week or early after noon on weekends. One thing that is always consistant is The Burger Federation. It's a medium size burger place with a bar, so you can eat and get a drink before your flight. It's open early and stays open until the last flights of the day leave. I have eaten here many times and tried all the beef burgers, this time I went to for their chicken burger. The Chicken Burger was a breaded patty with an Aoli mayo, and I got it with a side of fresh-cut fries and gravy. Fries are fries, and as long as they are fresh and salted properly, they tend to be good. The Burger Federations fries are crispy on the outside and soft and hot inside. Just the way I like them. The gravy is nothing to write home about but I like options when i have fries. What I will say about the Burger Federation is that the food is always fresh, the staff are always helpful, and the food comes out fairly fast even when it's busy. Give to a try yourself !!!

Stop for flight change needed food. Service was fast and delicious. Fries were fresh and hot!!! My peeve is cold fries!! Burger tasty and hot. Good beer selection with local options. Waitress was on the ball and checked In regularly.

Great Place when flying out of Cargary Airport the sample local beef. So glad I stopped for the BLT burger and hot fries.

Food was fast and fresh, and my server Jazz was fantastic - speedy and so lovely, she made my day!

Stopped here for breakfast, definitely won’t stop again. Terrible food, worse coffee and overpriced for what you get. Keep on walking two minutes and hit up A&W. much better value. On the bright side, the service was very good

Great atmosphere, branding, and service... Terrible food : I got the Rise and Shine burger. The patty tasted cheap, the cheese was fake, and the aioli was flavourless... The bacon was incredible though! The fries were okay. I wish I'd just gone to A&W...

The only real good thing about this place would be the plugs to use to charge your devices. Food is overpriced, greasy, and the tables and chairs never look to get wiped down. Service was decent but I would not eat here again.

If you like burgers I would not recommend this place. Rather bland thin patty. The chocolate shake wasn’t too bad though.Recommended dishesChocolate Shake

Ordered the breakfast burger. The egg was an egg mixture not an actual egg. The sauce was on both side of the bun making it super wet and messy not in a good way.

Solid 4 star place considering the fact that it’s in an airport. We ordered the chicken schnitzel and the baha crunch,while both things were slightly overdone, they were still pretty flavourful. If you like sweet potato upgrade your burgers to have sweet potato fries, they were honestly very well made. The normal fries were pretty good too. The service is pretty good and the view from the table is pretty good too. I’d stop here if I am ever in Calgary airport again.
